The Alpha's Unwanted Bride

Chapter 45: AURORA’S REVENGE

AURORA’S POV

Aurora was in her bedroom styling her hair while her servants brought in her bath filled with water.

She was in a very, very bad mood.

Ever since that bitch had come into their pack, she had caused absolutely nothing but trouble!

Absolutely nothing!

Imagine the audacity of her to even face her and talk back at her.

It infuriated her, and to make matters worse, she had bonded with Xaden.

Her Xaden.

Something she had never gotten to do herself.

Xaden had said clearly that he would never find a mate, marry, or be bonded.

But he had done two of those so far!

She knew that according to their laws, no wolf, Alpha or not, was allowed to take a woman away from an enemy’s pack unless he had killed and taken place as the Alpha.

Xaden had been unable to kill Bale because of the accord, so even though he had defeated him in battle, he could not claim Jasmine.

Hence, marriage was the only reason he could take her away from her family.

Aurora knew all these, but she couldn’t imagine them!

But it was a bond.

The only way he could break it was if Jasmine died.

And she had tried to kill that girl once, but it had failed.

Why was Erik scheming against her and even saving that bitch?

Didn’t her father kill his mate and unborn child?

Aurora hated this.

And every plan she made seemed to bring Xaden and Jasmine closer together.

She had never even slept in Xaden’s bed before.

He only fucked her, and she was to leave.

No one had slept in his bed before, but when she found that bitch half-naked and covered in his sheets, she instantly lost her mind.

She had made the farm instructor give her an impossible task, and yet she had overcome that.

How did a spoilt brat know how to clear a farm or even how it so well for planting?!

It was beyond her!

She had told Liza, one of the servant girls who was in the same bedroom, to make her life miserable.

Hopefully, she will accomplish that.

She sighed as she took off her robe and sat in the water.

It was so satisfying.

She gave a sharp glare at the girls.

”What are you waiting for?!” She barked. ”Scrub my back!”

The girls got up in fear and hurried to her.

Aurora gave a snort and rolled her eyes.

”Imbeciles,” she said.

The girls cleaned her body, and she closed her eyes to rest as they did her bidding.

She hadn’t worked all this way for nothing.

The truth was that Bale had come into her pack and butchered her entire family.

She hadn’t been an Alpha’s daughter, but her father was the gamma of the pack.

She had survived, but absolutely no one from the Alpha’s family had.

Especially his daughters.

There were only a few survivors from her pack, and she had lived with bitterness and hate.

When she met Xaden, there was raw lust and passion.

It was like no one understood him, as she understood him.

He was like no man she had ever met, and he could fuck so well.

He had taken her up, and she had fought by his side.

But he had told her he would never make her anything more than she already was.

It was painful.

She was in love with him; she knew.

And it was so difficult to pretend that she didn’t desire more than just fucking.

There was a knock at her door, interrupting her stream of thoughts.

She frowned.

”Go and find out who it is.” She ordered.

One of the girls bowed and hurriedly left.

When she checked the door, she came back and said, ”It’s Liza, the serving girl.”

Aurora became excited.

She had better have good news for her.

Maybe she had succeeded in killing that b*tch once and for all.

”Tell her to come in. Quickly!” She told the girl.

The servant bowed again, left, and then returned with Lisa.

”You came to see me.” Aurora said. ”Especially it being so late at night.”

It was extremely late, probably after midnight. What Liza had to say must be important.

”Yes, my lady.” She said. ”I would have come since, but I had to sneak out quietly.”

”Yes, yes, go on, tell me what has happened. Did you do it?” Aurora asked, waiting to hear the good news.

”No,” Liza said, dropping a bombshell. ”Well, we beat her up, but then Alpha Xaden came in and caught us. He almost gave us twenty lashes of the cane each. She is a witch, and she has hypnotized him. She begged him to forgive us, and he agreed. He then said that she would no longer sleep in our room and took her out.”

Aurora could not believe what her ears were hearing.

Xaden had caught them beating her up, and he had saved her.

Not only that, when he had chosen to punish them, the prostitute had begged him to forgive them, and he had agreed??!!

She wanted to die; she couldn’t breathe.

Xaden had never once listened to a second opinion she had given him.

She had never deterred Xaden from a thought!

Not for once!

And yet he had changed his mind when that enemy had asked him to?!

Aurora screamed in anger.

The girls jumped.

She picked up a glass vase by her side and threw it.

The girls fled away. Only Lisa remained, but she was hiding in a corner.

”THAT BITCH!” She screamed. ”HOW DARE SHE?!!!”

She was so furious that her wolf was howling.

Then, she managed to calm herself down.

No, she just needed to think things through.

”Where did you say she went?” Aurora demanded.

”She is now staying in the healer’s quarters.” The girl said,.

Aurora took a deep breath.

At least she wasn’t sleeping in Xaden’s room. She would never have been able to do that.

”Can I say something, my lady?” Liza said.

Aurora eyed the girl and wanted to tell her to go to hell, but she eventually said. ”Speak.”

”She had injuries on her back,” Lisa said. ”If she is Alpha Bale’s daughter, shouldn’t she be perfect? Spotless? I hate her. I really do. After what he did to my family, I hate her. It just surprises me. People were saying that she did her work very well. It’s not normal. Even the normal servants adjusted to the jobs slowly, but she is doing it all so well within a day.”

Aurora started to snap. She already knew that.

”SO WHAT DO I DO WITH THAT PIECE OF INFORMATION?

And then she froze.

It was true.

It was unusual. Even she couldn’t do such work.

She had heard rumors that she was most likely taken prisoner by an enemy pack when she was young, but the story was suspicious.

She rose to her feet, and Liza quickly brought her a towel and wrapped it around her.

Aurora thought to herself as she paced the room.

What if? What if Jasmine was not Alpha Bale’s daughter?

What if Xaden had been fooled?

If Xaden found out that the girl had lied to him, then he would kill her.

No one was allowed to deceive an Alpha.

It was a crime with serious consequences.

In rare cases, the person could be banished or killed.

She liked the latter.

Aurora gave a wicked smile.

”You’ve given me an idea.”
